Fantastic work by our M1, W1, M2 and W2 crews who took part in Newnham Head at the weekend! Everyone has already improved so much since the start of Lent, a testament to the hard work and commitment that has been put in! Let's keep this going up until Bumps!

An extra shout out to our M1, we're all immensely proud of you! The determination and resolve you have repeatedly shown is something special, even after suffering from a rudder that was unable to handle the speed of your boat.
